That seemed to go down well and you kept the nerves under control. Well done.  ;D
I was there but not there...if that makes sense...didn't see the audience (although that may be down to the hat slipping down and obscuring my view).

You were brilliant! We will never believe your self-deprecating posts ever again.
Oh, but I can hear every mistake....*cringes*

Well played and what a great reception! You should feel really pleased - and try to do it again soon  >:E
If I do it again....I'm roping in someone else to play with me. Or else it will be the same 3 tunes again.

You see - absolutely no need to worry! We don't want to hear any more "I can't" now, we've seen that you can...

Those tunes flowed, if you think you made mistakes you didn't show it - so the audience wouldn't know and that's a "well done" in a real perfomance situation. You did great.  ;) T.
BTW - I love the hat!

Seconded.

How come some can apparently see this video, while to others it says "This video is private". What's the secret?

I think it is because Sarah sent me the link as a Youtube 'friend' which meant that I have the required privilege to view the video. Until she makes it publicly available, other people here will have to use the Onmvoice sound file only here:

Sorry Sarah, if you didn't mean me to post the Youtube link.   :(

??? "This Video is Private" ???
you have to add me as a youtube friend so I can add you as permitted to view.

Sorry Sarah, if you didn't mean me to post the Youtube link.   :(
I was quite surprised to see you'd done so. Naughty Steve.

edit: am trying to upload it to photobucket for viewing by you lot but its taking a loooong time as didn't want it on 'general' view on youtube.

Oh dear. Sorry Sarah. I hadn't realised that it was a private video. After all, you'd already posted still photos and a link to the audio file.
But your performance was so successful  (:)  - it deserves to be seen by the folks on here who have been following your progress.

Perhaps the best thing to do would be to delete it from Youtube, and then re-upload it so that it gets a new file name. Then anyone from this forum who wants to view it can apply to you to be granted 'friend' status and can then be given permission to view.

Now all you need to do is to get rid of that 'No natural talent' thing in your signature footer. It is clearly inappropriate.

Well done Sarah, you've had us all fooled into thinking that you can't really play when you quite obviously can, and fluently with expression as well. The last tune was a great finish and nice to see you acknowledge the audience at the end. Warning !! You will now be addicted and want to do it again as soon as possible.

Nice playing indeed.
The box sounds good too, which is always a sign that it's in the right hands.

you seem to have plenty of roadies btw. I'm jealous.
My cousin and his two friends were doing the sound and stage stuff.

Brill Sarah, I'd just die in front of an audience - you did a grand job, really proud of you.
